Cool Daily Driver Cars...

Hey,

Just bought me a daily driver for work and play, 2003 VW GTI VR6 6 speed. I got me a Mini-me L..

What do you guys think?

After owning a Lightning, It's hard to drive any vehicle in "stock" condition.

I've already ordered some mod's for it, exhaust, Lowering springs, Koni adjustable shocks, Cold air intake, Bigger Rear sway bar.

Looks good to me, just got myself a beater a few weeks ago. Huge power loss from the L, but a V6 is better than nothing.

lol you guys will probably laugh at me but mine is a 93 white buick gran sport. 113K miles and just as strong as the day my mom bought it 10 years ago (I bought it from her last year with 80K on the ticker). That 3800 is a hell of an engine! Lightning has a bit better 0-60 time though
